Book: The Examiner by Janice Hallett
Reviewed by Book Holds and Jello Molds
Rating: 4/5
Gela Nathaniel has created a small group masters-level art course at Royal Hastings College and personally selected her inaugural class. Six students from all walks of life are thrown together to learn more about themselves as artists and create a unique art installation for a company. Told completely through emails, diary entries, texts, class essays, message group entries, this story had me riveted from the beginning. This is the type of mystery I love- every time I thought I had things figured out, I realized that it wasn't at all what I thought. Janice Hallett certainly knows how to deliver a compelling story through found documents. I can't wait to read more from her!
